Disclaimer: I don't own Charmed.

I feel like I should warn everyone reading this story about one thing: I have not read the Charmed comics. In fact, I wasn't aware that there even was a series of comics for Charmed until a few days ago. So, anything in the comics will not come up in this story. Sorry.

But anyway, onwards!

Chapter 3

Rose was, unsurprisingly, none too enthusiastic about demon hunting the next morning, but Calla managed to talk her into it. It wasn't too hard-all she had to do was promise pay for a spa trip for Rose sometime in the near future and she was in.

So now, here they were, in the Underworld in a quest to vanquish some demons. Just a typical day in the lives of the Martin sisters.

"You have the vanquishing potion, right?" Calla asked quietly, her lips very close to Rose's ear so that no creature could overhear them.

Rose shot her twin a look.

"Yes, Calla. I totally orbed us to the Underworld to get rid of a demon that can easily kill witches without the potion to vanquish the demon. Honestly, Calla, do you really think I'm stupid enough to forget it?"

Calla scowled at her sister. She loved sarcasm as much as the next person, but every time Rose used it she wanted to punch her.

"Well, you did have to retake second grade, so yeah, maybe."

Rose scowled at her but didn't bother to retort. If she did then it'd be a never ending cycle of insult exchanging, and they so did not need that right now.

Especially since the demon in question was right in front of their faces, leering at them. Not to mention his little minions, three Brute demons who were wired to attack should the sister even so much as attempt to move.

Insulting each other would definitely not help their already delicate situation.

The demon didn't look to happy about the fact that his victims were talking to each other, but he wasn't yelling at them to shut up, either, so the sisters paid him no heed.

"So, um, how exactly were we captured this time?" Calla asked, glancing around the cavern they were being held in before gesturing to their bound hands.

Rose pursed her lips in thought before shrugging.

"I think it was because we were too busy arguing with each other to notice the fact that a demon was creeping up on us, and by the time we did notice it was already too late," she finally replied. Calla nodded her head, accepting her sister's answer, before she took the time to observe the space around her.

Escape wasn't really an option. They were both tied up with a demon watching their every move. They could try to escape, but it would probably end in failure.

But they had to try.

Land besides, they'd escaped before. They could easily escape again.

"Okay. Here's the plan. We'll untie each other, then you chuck your potion at the demon and orb away. I'll dodge all of their attacks, making sure to keep their attention me. Then, while they're distracted by my flailing form-" Calla began, only for Rose to cut her off.

"That's a horrible plan."

"I didn't even get to finish telling you my totally brilliant plan. You can't just shoot me down without hearing me out."

"I don't need to hear the rest of it. Your plan will get us killed. It's a terrible plan, Cal."

"It's not. It's an amazing plan."

"It's the worst plan I've ever heard of."

"Is not."

"Is too."

"Is not."

"Is too."

"Is-"

This time, the witch-killing demon she had forgotten the name of cut her off. Apparently their arguing was louder than Calla had originally thought.

"Shut up already. You're making my ears bleed."

Calla shot him the most hate-filled glare she could muster, but the demon merely laughed and walked away.

"Well, since my plan is so terrible I'd love to hear your bright idea," Calla said quietly, and Rose rolled her eyes.

"I don't have any ideas or escape plans. All I knew was that your plan was going to end in blood and/or death and that we shouldn't go through with it," her sister replied smugly.

Calla sighed, exasperated.

"Well then how the hell are we going to get out of here?"

As if on cue, two people orbed into the cavern. The Brute demons attacked them but were easily vanquished by the newcomers. The sisters couldn't see their faces from where they were, as the boys were at their backs, but Calla had a pretty good guess as to who they were.

"I bet five bucks that it's those Halliwell boys," she said to Rose, who snorted.

"You're on."

The sounds of their voices must've attracted the newcomers, as they headed in the direction of the sisters.

Finally the sisters could see their faces. Calla grinned when she saw them.

"Ha! I win! Pay up," Calla said, elbowing her sister in the side as hard as she could. Rose winced, then shot Calla a glare.

"Cal, we're in the Underworld. I don't know about you, but I left my wallet at home in case it was blown to smithereens. So I'll pay you after we get home."

By then the Halliwell brothers were in earshot.

"Why do you owe Calla money?" Wyatt asked Rose, who shot her sister another glare. Calla smiled innocently at her sister in response.

"We made a bet on who you guys were. She won," Rose informed the Twice Blessed. Wyatt turned to Calla with an arched brow.

"How did you know it would be us?"

Calla thought about the question for a moment before she shrugged.

"I figured besides Rose and I no other person besides you Halliwell boys would be suicidal enough to venture into the Underworld to search for and vanquish demons," she finally said.

The two brothers rolled their eyes at this.

Suddenly an ingenious idea struck Calla.

"So...do you guys want to help hunt demons with us? Four is better than two, after all."

Chris and Wyatt shared a look.

"Sure, why not," Chris said, answering for both brothers.

Calla smirked. This was going to be fun.

So, another chapter. Sorry it took me so long for me to write such a short chapter-I've been pretty busy. The whole transition between Calla asking Rose about the potion to the fact that they had been captured by the demon was, in retrospect, a little confusing, I know. Hopefully it's not too terrible. Anywho, thanks for reading! Hope you like it so far!
